Alvin Kamara scores 4 touchdowns as Saints dominate Cowboys in Dallas

Alvin Kamara isn’t done quite yet.

For anyone questioning whether the New Orleans Saints running back could return to what he was earlier in his career — five straight Pro Bowl appearances from 2017 to 2021 — he ended that in Sunday’s 44-19 win against the Dallas Cowboys. 

Kamara, 29, had four touchdowns to propel the Saints to a 2-0 start to the season. He scored from 5 yards out to open the scoring in the first quarter and then had a 57-yard reception from quarterback Derek Carr in the second. Kamara’s 12-yard rushing score later in the second quarter gave New Orleans a 28-13 advantage, and he put the game out of reach with a 7-yard touchdown late in the third. 

The Saints improved to 2-0 on the season, while the Cowboys are 1-1. 

Dallas’ defense, which ranked among the best in the NFL last season, gave up 432 yards Sunday. The Cowboys surrendered 190 yards on the ground, 115 to Kamara. Carr finished with 243 yards passing with one touchdown and one interception.
